I think this is where LeBron is going wrong.
He is treating his Cavs teammates like his students and not his peers. I don’t think Kevin Love and the others want to be see as LeBron’s hype men, they want to be seen as partners. But, if you listen to LeBron they look up to him like he’s some deity.
“Me being the leader of the team, if I start hanging my head low then it’s going to start going to everyone else,” he said. “They look up to me. They look to me to make a difference and I’ve got to stay positive even through the rough times. As I’ve said before, this is not the darkest point that we’ll see this year. I’ve seen dark and this is very light to me.”
LeBron goes on to say he has been sucking and misses D Wade, but I think if he would start seeing more eye to eye with his teammates than looking down from his throne they would react better to his leadership.
